Protein markets have changed

In a rapidly developing market, where specialty products command premium prices, the stakes are higher and getting it wrong is more expensive than ever before.

Global protein boom creates cost instability

Worldwide protein demand has exploded. Finding cost stability in this surge is nearly impossible when every market participant competes for the same limited supply.

Immature market, constant shifts

Supply and demand constantly shift in a market that hasn't reached maturity. Traditional forecasting fails when the rules change daily.

Specialty ingredients lack transparency

High proteins, creatine, and specialty ingredients operate in opaque markets. Without reliable benchmarks, you're negotiating blind.

“Vesper has made the market more transparent in terms of market prices, especially for categories like WPI, WPC.”
